A Relic OF Barbarism.

The bull fight in the City of Mexico,
which was attended by President Diaz
and several of his cabinet, and at which
four horses were killed. two matadores
severely injured and several picadores
disabled, is nothing more than remnant
of the savagery and cruelty which is
characteristic of barbarism. The illus
tration drawn from Rome and the arenic
combats there prove nothing to the con-
trary. True It is that at the time of the
gladlatorial combats and wild beast
shows in Rome, the former mistress Of
the world was at the height of splcndor,
of luxury, of elegance and of material
wealth, but at the same time Rome was
but one vast brothel, where lust and
ancient Roman valor was !smothered IN
Tyrian purple and drownep IN
Falernian wine. The spirit of conquest
and the admiration for personal
bravery had degenerated into Il savage
thirst for blood of hired bravoes, and the
descendants of those who had bound up
the wounds of Horatius or gazed with
Lucceis bosom, now found their highest
delight in seeing two Gauls or Germans
contend in death struggle, or in gazing
upon the agonles of christian maiden
torn by wild beasts.
Let the admirers of bulll-ights plead
for their favorite sports, if they will.
upon the proper ground, that OF the fibre
of coarseness and cruelty which runs
through human nature, especially in the
Latin races; but let them not defend it
by citing classic models, or instancing
the moral leprosy OF Rome as sufficient
excuse for brutalizing and degrading the
spirit of the present age.
There can be found no single apology
| or excuse for this kind of sport, so called,
Of human nature, love of cruelty Therr
is no high or lofty courage displayed. a.
IN most cases where the bull attacks
horse and man the noblcr animal the
| horse, has TO suffer. 1t is
nothing but sheer, malignant cru
city to all the animals concerned,
| and its only purpose is to pander to TIE
debased and depravcd tastes of those
| whose zest for ordinary pleasures and
| amusements is worn out and who re,
quire bloodshed to stir their feeble pas
| sions or to kindle their interest. 1t is upon
| no higher or more elevated plane than
| ratkilling or badger-bating, where the
hunted animal is not intended to have
| and docs not have chance fer its life,
| but where the mangled bodies and oozlng
| gore of the poor victims satlates the un-
| natural appetite for horrors, which Is
the leading passion Of the degraded
spectators.
| leading feature of the Mexican people
amusemcnts, their genuine civilization
may be seriously questioned. Civilization
in the highest sense, must include refine
ment and delicacy OF feeling, and they can
never exist where such barbous recrca.

wild enthusiasm Is excited by the sight
